Upper Sac Report 3/16-3/18

[trepverter]

Went up last week and spent 2 nights camping at Castle Crags and fishing the Sac with a buddy. Our first day yielded no bites and no looks. Day two started with a trip to Ted Fay where Bob set us straight and gave us some great advice.

Equipped with more lead and a lot more rubberlegs, we started catching on day 2. Lots of bugs on the water but no risers. We each landed two fish that day: 12", 2 around 18" and 1 pushing 20". Day 3 produced a fat 16" for me. All fish took the tungsten bead rubberlegs.

The seams held all of our fish and they were on the bottom. We lost a lot of gear getting the flies down but it worked!
